Making You Happy to Get Their Way – Are They Using Tips From Lucifer to Organize America and the World | Rules For Radicals | Looking Back at President Obama's Administration
from Greg Lancaster · host GLM
3 Things You’ll Learn: How flattery and appeasement are used to gain control Why temporary happiness often hides long-term harm How discernment protects believers from manipulation Episode Description: Not all manipulation feels harsh—sometimes it feels pleasant. In this episode, Greg Lancaster exposes how making people “happy” can be used as a strategy to silence truth and gain compliance. Listeners are challenged to recognize when comfort is being used to override conviction and why truth must never be exchanged for approval. This tactic is taken from Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky, where it appears as one of the 13 rules, and it is referenced here for exposure—not endorsement. Scripture warns believers about what John calls “Satan’s so-called deep secrets” (Revelation 2:24), and this rule is examined through that biblical lens. The purpose is to reveal how such methods stand in direct opposition to the character, truth, and ways of Christ. #discernment #truth #deception #spiritualwarfare Subscribe for more, and explore resources at https://GregLancaster.org https://GregLancaster.org/Books Social Links My Links: https://GregLancaster.org/MyLinks https://YouTube.com/@GregLancaster https://X.com/GregLancaster98 https://Facebook.com/RealGregLancaster https://Facebook.com/GregLancasterMinistries https://Instagram.com/GregLancaster98 Call to Action Download the GLM APP — text GLM to 77977 where we Connect & Engage We’d love to connect with you.
